Daedric Armor (Skyrim) (2024)

in:Skyrim: Armor, Skyrim: Heavy Armor Sets

English

Physical appearance

It is similar to its counterparts in previous games, but also has some differences; the primary design for Daedric Armor in Skyrim possesses an incredibly dark and sinister design that seems to have a more gothic and mythological inspiration than its predecessors.

The armor itself has an overall unique model with a black-metallic color scheme (due to being made from ebony), and is decorated with small silver chains, intricate and ornamental designs on the boots, lower torso and gauntlets, two sets of shoulder guards underneath the initial armored spikes mounted on the shoulders, and even several large fasteners located all over the body that link each piece of the armor together.

The set also features several other spikes protruding from various parts of the body as well as six large horn-like spikes on the very top of the helmet to accompany the large eye-like sockets in the front, giving the Dragonborn a monstrous appearance.

The gauntlets and the cuirass will also give off a deep red glow whenever the armor is worn in dark or dimly lit areas; this does not, however, have an effect on the Dragonborn's detection while sneaking.

Locations

Unenchanted pieces of daedric armor will begin to appear throughout Skyrim at level 48, and enchanted armor will begin to appear at level 49.

Found as random loot in "boss" chests after level 49+.
Unenchanted pieces dropped as random loot by Revered or Legendary Dragons.
Enchanted and unenchanted pieces, as well as Daedric weaponry, may be bought through the Dremora Merchant.

Smithing

"I can only tell you tales of how to make Daedric armor. I have never seen it myself, nor do I know anyone that has. The stories say that it should always be worked on at night... ideally under a new or full moon, and never during an eclipse. A red harvest moon is best. Ebony is the principle material, but at the right moment a daedra heart must be thrown into the fire."

―Sven Two-Hammers^[src]

Forging Daedric Armor requires a Smithing level of 90 and the Daedric Smithing perk. Pieces can be forged at a blacksmith's forge with the following components:

Daedra Hearts
Ebony Ingots
Leather Strips

The Atronach Forge

Conjurers who have completed their Ritual Spell at level 90 can also create Daedric armor at the Atronach Forge. The following components are required to forge the armor:

1 × Sigil Stone
1 × Daedra Heart
1 × Unenchanted Ebony Armor of the desired type
1 × Centurion Dynamo Core
1 × Black Soul Gem (empty or filled)

Trivia

If the Dragonborn wears the cuirass part of the armor and not the helmet, the Dragonborn's neck will also glow red.
Even though the book Heavy Armor Forging states it should only be forged at night, with the best times being a new moon, full moon, and a red harvest moon, it can be forged at any time.
Although summoned Dremora wear a set of Daedric armor, excluding the helmet, they can not be looted as they instantly disappear when killed.
